Ok, here's the story.

Recently changed over to Tesco Insurance (much cheaper than Admiral). Since then I've had the following done to my car.

Full suspension kit
New backbox
Full colour-coding
new front grill

I'm getting some 17s put on soon as well and thought i'd better ring them up and declare these mods. How much (roughly) do you think they'll want extra?

I'm 21, have 2 years NCB on a 1.2 SXI Corsa C

ta muchly

My insurance was £700 ish last year with no mods. After telling them I had a body kit, 15 alloys, tints, spoiler it shot up to £1050. That was with 0 years no claims tho and I was 22.

There is always the old excuse "the letter was in the post" If you did crash send a letter straight away with a previous date on it, theres not alot they can do then.

So don't tell them until they ask sorta thing
